How to Raise an Assassin
Zay hates her life as an assassin. She'd give it up and run away if she could, but since her family are very skilled at tracking down and killing people, it's probably best she stays. She only has six more years before she turns eighteen and can abandon this life for good. There isn't much to love about being a part of the Reaper Core after all. Sure they were the extremely rich leaders of the infamous Reaper gang that services wealthy neighborhoods in Chicago; but that wealth came with the hard work of murdering for a paycheck. Then there's the whole drama with the Locusts, the sworn enemy of the Reapers who command the poorer areas in southern Chicago. Zay's dad wants them eliminated for good. Zay couldn't care less. Either way she'd still have to go to school the next day and face the isolation that being affiliated with a gang entails. That is, until she meets Ash, a friend who makes life just a bit more normal. But even that doesn't last long. Thanks to him, she now finds herself forced to join the Locusts when she doesn't even want to be a part of the Reapers. Caught between two evils, Zay has to make a choice: to choose the lesser of the two evils... Or to carve a third option. *** This story is complete!

Release Me
Highest ranked- #10 in action 2/16/2017 A promotion. That's all I wanted. I didn't want to run for my life. I didn't want to be kidnapped. I didn't want to face death. I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head. My hair was stuck to my face from all the sweat and blood. Everything was spinning around me and the ground seemed like it was shaking. Groaning I sat down and put my head on my knees. He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where. While I was in my own world I heard faint sounds behind me but I didn't bother to look or run away. The footsteps got closer and I was pretty sure it was Walker's men. I should run. I should try to fight. But what's the point in trying to run away? He would eventually find me and if he has his way he would most likely kill me. If this is my fate then why am I trying to fight it? I felt someone harshly grab my waist and pull me up and I complied. They dragged me down the alley and into the busy street. I heard the opening of a car and the next thing I knew I was being thrown into a car. My head hit the hard leather seat and the door shut behind me. Maybe this is how my life will end. Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.Complete

Maybe
